He might have accepted it was an impressive win but Leitrim manager Hugh Donnelly claimed last Sunday's victory over Derry “was hard fought, and it was nip and tuck for long periods.
“The scoreline was very flattering to be honest. Derry made it very difficult for us for long periods of the game. For whatever reason, we were slow to start with; we were sluggish; we just didn’t do the things we were supposed to be doing and we made very hard work of it.”
